With the increased demand for more capacity to store data at a faster rate and with zero tolerance for failures, the testing of data storage systems is increasingly more complex and time consuming. Because of these stringent demands, the boards controlling the data flow and the disc drives undergo a battery of tests from functional to long term environmental tests to weed out any weak components. To perform these tests, the power supply needs to be very reliable, otherwise long term tests may need to be repeated which can cause delays in shipment, customer dissatisfaction and increase the cost of testing.
The Keysight Technologies, Inc. 6690A is designed specifically for this application. It is part of a new series of power supplies that is leveraged off one of a most reliable power supply series, the 6681A & 6682A. The 6690A provides the appropriate voltage and current ratings for testing data storage control boards. The power supplies can be connected in parallel for higher current, or in series for higher voltage requirements.
During their development phase, Keysight power supplies undergo a battery of environmental tests such as an 8-day temperature profile. Other tests include humidity, altitude, shock and vibration, ESD, ac line tests, EMC and RFI. The power supplies are designed with built-in margin so that they can meet their specifications over time, under all conditions, and also withstand peak stress.
The design margins and the stringent environmental tests translate into reliable products. This means lower cost of ownership, minimum downtime and faster delivery of your systems to your customers.
